Who says cows can’t lay eggs?

And don’t say “literally everyone”, that’s a cop out answer

Yep, from way way back. BSD -> NextStepOS -> OS X -> iOS

In what universe does Linux run on 99% of mobile devices? Android is nowhere near 99% market share, and iPhones are not and never have been based on Linux.

Local elections are the time. That’s it, that’s the answer. Third parties have to build up heavy momentum in smaller elections and only then build up to bigger ones, and eventually the big chair.

Doing very little at the local level and making a big splash once every four years is not a strategy for public policy or even for public debate, it’s solely a strategy for fundraising.

If we are guessing that each roommate has and mostly drank their beverage of choice, then while the overall quantity isn’t too bad, the guy who likes Blue Moon may need to rethink his habits.

Malarkey Nonsense Fabrication

There are a lot of valid reasons not to do a screw in plug, but hoses solved this problem decades ago. The tip turns, the cord doesn’t

Bonus, let’s nix the football team too. We don’t need the traumatic brain injuries.

Some of it can be done during study hall, while kids are doing their work.

At the price he paid for them, still cheaper to start your own and just market it heavily. Especially considering hour baby have left during his tenure.

Probably shouldn’t have been so specific, as I don’t know how deeply encrypted zip files can be in terms of bits. Broadly speaking, there is definitely some kind of encrypted archive file that would be secure when sent over email

It’s very easy to E2E encrypt stuff you’re sending via email: zip it up in a password protected archive. Even the email client won’t know what it’s sending.

And even if that isn’t good for whatever reason, there’s no reason to use email. A web form via https is secure and encrypted, and cuts out the email middleman.

That’s not the reason we still use fax machines. The reason we still use fax machines is because someone very old and set in their ways is the one in charge of making the decision to move away from fax machines.

It’s not that you misquoted a line or something like that. The dictionary quote is an extremely well known saying that originated in the Bible. Zapp’s line in futurama is literally parodying that saying. By thinking the dictionary is in any way referencing the Futurama scene, you have revealed that you didn’t even get the joke in the first place.

The original Klingon of course

Holy shit that sounds like an absolute nightmare.

Let’s ignore for the moment all the mega corporation and cloud data security implications of that (and there are MANY), let’s pretend it does all processing and storage locally and never needs to transmit any of those conversations offsite.

That STILL sounds like an absolute nightmare. I could spy on the people who live with me in an extraordinarily efficient way. “Hey Siri, what did my wife talk about in the phone call over breakfast?” “Hey siri, is my daughter gay?” “Hey siri, summarize all the conversations you heard at this dinner party.”

I’m not saying it being a YouTube parasite is a BAD thing. But as long as it’s primarily getting it’s views from people who started watching on YouTube first, “parasite” is an apt description.

Nebula is making good inroads. It’s well positioned to (eventually) make a shift from “YouTube parasite” to “YouTube alternative”.

I always feel like I’m in the minority when it comes to action sequences. They are 80% of the time the most boring part of a movie. Plot and character development don’t happen during them, and usually (especially for the big climactic fight scene) the outcome is certain.

For me, the only exceptions are generally:

Fights that the heroes might actually lose. (So usually, the fights earlier in the show)

Fights where there are good character moments or development during it. (The Princess Bride sword fight scene is a classic for this)

Fights with lots of good strategy/tactics in them. (Game of Thrones had a lot of this, at least prior to the last season)

There are a very few fight scenes I’ll actually enjoy outside of these ones, and it feels like many action movies don’t bother with any of this.

Independent of other factors, running the AC definitely does.

In most cases, “life-threatening side effects” would be a dealbreaker for me. But if I have a mentally degenerating illness when I reach that age, I’d absolutely be in the “let’s fix it or let me die” camp. Either would be preferable to going through the motions of life while forgetting everything and everyone.
